DIONYSIUM 7/9: Sex Roles: More Biology or Society?

Are even the most bizarre gendered actions undertaken by the
human race -- say, men wanting to smash foes like Superman smashing Zod, or women
flocking to the defense of Aaron Hernandez and the surviving Boston bomber -- just
the playing out of arbitrary social codes?Could these patterns be unlearned, or are they just evidence of an
intractably gendered human biology?Find out at last!

The Dionysium presents a debate next week, Tue., July
9th (8pm) on

"Blurred Lines: Are Sex Roles Created More by
Biology or Society?"

with:

Biology: Diana Fleischman, Ph.D., senior lecturer in
evolutionary psychology at the University of Portsmouth (and vegan blogger at
http://Sentientist.org)

It's all Tue., July 9 (8pm), at the Muchmore's
performance space/bar in Williamsburg, ground floor of 2 Havemeyer St.
(corner of N. 9th St.), just three blocks east of the easily-reached first L
stop into Brooklyn, Bedford Ave.
